[Praxit]

...wooo weee.!! ..hearing some good stuff about this guy.

After seeing that I literally have no idea how or why 830 people actually subscribe to watch him.

Even scarier is the fact that he streams himself doing live commentary during games. If that doesn't make you want to hear Chris Collinsworth, nothing will.

No. It just shows your judgement is skewed. But go on. Spin away.

Hankins has been in the league for a decade and is a very well known player. For you to refer to him as an unknown again shows you either one don’t pay attention to any team but the cowboys (so how can you properly judge good QB play)? And two you’re only here to troll other fans.

I can sort of understand it in a “I’m not really sure what this guy has done lately” sense. I really liked this guy as a prospect and thought he was a very good young player. I think after so long in the league as the very promising young guy who never really makes that leap to all-pro at a non flash he’s kinda easy to forget about but I agree odd to think of him as a complete unknown.

dude is being significantly heavier then I remember him being, and that can majorly hamper a guy getting older that you expect significant snaps from. Still he’s only thirty and shouldn’t have fallen off a cliff so if he’s 90% of the guy he was on limited early down snaps it’s a tremendous pickup.

Translation: Quinton Bohanna was not super duper improved this year.

Wrong. Hankins will get lined up next to Bohanna on certain run plays.

 

[Screw The Hall]

Here’s one perspective.

 

[America's Cowboy]

To get a look at the big man.

Lots of girth from Hankins. Not a bad move for a 30 year old. Question is how much does he have left in the tank? I read he had been relegated to a backup role this year with the Raiders.

Maybe the Cowboys could have saved their 6th round pick by moving Jason Peters to DT? Peters definitely has the beef to help clog up the middle.

 

[Diehardblues]

We didn't need that 1st round pick anyway. This roster is loaded.

Did we actually give up a 1st rounder? I haven’t heard that report yet.

 

[StarMan2112]

This is pretty positive.

 

[AsthmaField]

any idea what our third down rotation looks like now - Micah/DA/Dlaw/Thill?

Well, it varies… but I have noticed a 4 man line of Parsons, Lawrence, Armstrong, Fowler on third and long. Quinn also had Barr crowding the A-gap on that particular play as well.

But they’ll use numerous combinations, depending on down and distance. Obviously, Hankins will help in running situations.

Gave up a 2023 6th and got a 2024 7th in return.

 

[Fritsch_the_cat]

We get a pick back.

They traded a box of Cracker Jacks for him. If he contributes at all, it's a good trade.

 

[kumizi]

He’s over the hill. Another cheap Stephen acquisition. Recognizable name should pacify the fan base. Win win for both Jones.

 

[Walker]

Put him in 1st down situations where its a mix pass/run. Or obvious run situations.

 

[Pevansjr]

Well, for now, how do all the fans having a meltdown about never trading for players and giving up too much feel?

That to be determined on how he plays.

This is a good trade, even if he doesn't work out as we want, we basically did not give up anything.

This

 

[Typhus]

So what is the deal with Gallimore, is there a link anywhere to why he is being listed as out, and was scratched vs Lions?
Just find it rather odd and non-coincidental with this signing.

 

[Davidlee1973]

Good trade, now can we get jeudy for a 2nd and will jerry make the call

 

[Diehardblues]

Gave up a 2023 6th and got a 2024 7th in return.

Then it basically didn’t cost us anything.
Thanks

 

[ak47kaehu]

He is 30..lol

I know just exaggerating a bit but still on the older side.........I hope he still has that nastiness and stoutness that he played with a few years ago!

You apparently have not read this thread.

No just the headline.
